it's nerves.

why don't you do some real reading instead of trying to self diagnose?
If you are not a Dr. you can not diagnose yourself!!!!!

confused- last hep tests were very recent... so would be like 18 months post exposure... doc did mention non-A,b,c hep is possibility? but even if it was, not much they could do for me...

anonymous- what is so hard to diagnose about an oral ulcer? its right there, a no-brainer.

i know now they have discovered D and maybe E i'm not sure. i think they are pretty rare, but before they had a name for them they just called them non-A,B,C hep. theres also some other heps like autoimmune hep. this is what my doc told me. sounds reasonable, i wouldnt be suprised if some other types were floating around. in this case, is non- N,O hiv unreasonable? who knows. sorry to put that thought in your head, but couldnt resist the login comparison...

I don't know about you uhoh,but the docs ive seen don't seem to give a s..t ,and don't take my symptoms seriously.as if i don't have better things to do then see them.So far ive been to 4 different docs and they all rushed me out of there office,must be late for a golf game.Sure would be nice to find one that cares a bit.Did you test for htlv yet? or to anyone elese that has these same symptoms has anyone tested for htlv.

you are preachin to the choir man. i could go on for HOURS on the subject of docs. what makes matters worse is when you find out the guy is an arrogant bastard like most of them, it only makes you look worse for seeing yet another doc. i really dont think they know the answer. no clue. which is why they make something up and rush you out and hope to never see you again. cha-ching. they also get threatened i think when you question them. its like "LOOK IM JUST TRYING TO SALVAGE MY LIFE HERE". they dont understand. i am going to them for HELP. paying outrageous money for HELP. what happened to their compassion and sense of customer satisfaction. we get better service on our vehicles but we live in our bodies and they get treated like dirt.
no, i havent been tested for htlv. the docs i asked about it either had no idea what it was, thought it was the same thing as hiv, or gave me the scoff-off.
and how about the office hours? like i can take 2 hours off work so often to come and see them and what am i supposed to tell work either I have a mystery STI or Im a raving lunatic? like im on some kind of mission to remain ill?
where CAN you find a good doc? when you really need one, without visting 100 of them, then your just screwed anyhow.

sorry for the venting. im a *bit* frustrated.

My ulcer got bigger, not too big, and more came in the same spot. It's annoying me sooo bad. Does anyone have any tips to make them go away faster?
